I also picked up at least 1 mpg and the fan belt was able to be removed and changed to a shorter one that only ran the alternator. After a while I added a second so it had a pusher and a puller so when I was offroad or in traffic I could run both and never had a problem again. FYI they were both switched not thermostatically controlled. This is a mod I would definitely stand behind and if I do go ahead and get one of these will be doing it in the spring.
Here's a few interesting threads discussing overheating, adding an electric fan, as well as replacing the stock radiator with a custom aluminum one. Just FYI
